Oil use of a 352 rebuild?
Hi name is Landon Llewellyn I've owned this 1963 Ford Galaxie 500 Sedan since I was 14 and drive it everyday. It is in great shape and low miles.. just 48,753 miles on the body and less than 38,000 miles on the new engine.
Back to my problem it has always burnt oil which is natural for those FE engines... However lately it has burnt more than I like..It burns it only when I take my foot off the gas like slowing down of the interstate on the off ramp.. a cloud of smoke goes out the back...
